Tell Me About It
A lightweight C-40X carbon frame and side plates makes the Okuma Helios SX a strong, durable, and resilient reel, that's designed and built to stand up to whatever your coarse fishing might throw at it, from large carp on commercial venues, to feisty perch in the rivers, and everything in between.
The C40X cyclonic flow rotor acts to reduce corrosion on the gear system, while Tension Control Armor helps prevent line twist, ensuring a smooth presentation and accurate lay in the water. Not only does line that's kept free from twists ensure that you're easily able to reel your catch in, it also lasts longer, meaning that a little investment in a good reel and quality line early on can save you money later.
A comfortable EVA handle knob ensures that this reel feels as good by the last light of evening as it did first thing in the morning, while the computer balanced rotor equalising system keeps your reel running smoothly, increasing its longevity, and giving you a better fishing performance. Corrosion-resistant ball bearings provide the final finishing touch, completing a reel that's designed to take the punishment that demanding, challenging, competitive angling has to offer.
